Hot Summer Mood Board

Hot Summer Fashion in Orange and Purple on ello

Perhaps if I put lots of hot sultry images on my blog and everywhere else we might get a few days of lovely weather.  I know it's Scotland and we had our summer last Tuesday but I do hope it gets better for us going away for a wee birthday break.....

Floral Lace Mood Board

Floral Lace Lingerie Moodboard

One of the first things I complete when I start working on a fashion or textile project.  Mood boards or trend boards can be really helpful to set the scene, focus your mind and give the client a visual idea of where you are thinking of going with your designs.  I'm also given mood boards to work from and can be a blessing when a client from PeoplePerHour, for example, struggles to describe what they are looking for.

Guinness Storehouse Mood Board

Last mood board from our Guinness Storehouse tour in Dublin.  Busy exhibition with lots to see on each floor and, of course, a welcome pint on the top floor of the building.

I'm not a Guinness drinker but if there is one place you should have one it's got to be the Guinness Storehouse Tour at the Gravity Bar on a clear day so you get the full 360 view of Dublin.

WABI SABI by 'redroadstudio'

There is something about worn, deconstructed, aged, textured materials that can be quite beautiful - I've created a couple of moodboards based on this theme.  The Japanese call it 'Wabi Sabi'.

Happy finds! Love it when I come across work I'd completed months ago but it's made me realise I'll have to get better organised.

One of the loveliest ways to start a new project is creating a mood board.  You can switch off and go through your old sketchbooks, magazines and photographs then arrange them till you are happy with them and get started on those all important ideas.
